The general application for the 2019 scholarship year for eligible countries (see below) will be launched in May of 2018.

General Information about the program
Each year, the AAOS International Scholars program is available to eligible surgeons from select countries based on the
World Bank Gross National Income classification (low, middle and upper-middle income).

Scholars attend an OLC skills course of their choice and spend three to five days observing at a major US institution. The scholarship award covers the discounted OLC course registration fee, hotel accommodations, and most of the air travel expenses.
